About The Yorkshire Sewing Guy
Hi, I'm Jamie — The Yorkshire Sewing Guy. I picked up sewing in 2025 as a way to unwind and step away from the endless scroll of social media. It had been over 30 years since I last sat at a sewing machine (back in school!), but I quickly rediscovered my love for the craft.
Why Are Sewing Supplies in the UK So Expensive?
One of the first things I noticed when getting back into sewing was just how costly it can be. Beyond the machine itself, there's a seemingly never-ending list of supplies — fabrics, interfacing, threads, rulers, rotary cutters, and more. The costs add up fast, and I knew there had to be a better way.
How The Yorkshire Sewing Guy Store Was Born
To keep my own costs down, I started buying full fabric bolts and selling the excess on Vinted — passing the savings on to fellow sewists at well below retail price. The response was brilliant. I quickly realised I could source and sell quality sewing supplies at prices that make this hobby genuinely accessible to everyone.
That idea grew into this store, which officially launched at the end of March 2026. My wife Amy has been with me every step of the way, and together we've built up a substantial stock of fabrics, materials, and haberdashery supplies — carefully chosen to give you the best possible range from day one.
Quality Sewing Supplies You Can Trust
I only stock products I would use myself. I've tried the cheaper alternatives from overseas marketplaces and found the quality simply wasn't good enough. Every product in this store meets the standard I'd expect for my own projects — no compromises.
How We Offer the Best Prices on Sewing Supplies in the UK
Sewing is my passion, not my day job. Using my professional background as a Proposition Manager, I've sourced the best UK wholesalers and distributors and built strong relationships to bring you the most competitive prices available. Because this store is run as a hobby rather than a profit-driven business, every penny made goes straight back into expanding our range of fabrics and sewing supplies.
Can't Find What You're Looking For?
If there's something you need that we don't currently stock, get in touch and I'll do my best to source it. If I genuinely can't beat the price elsewhere, I'll tell you honestly — and explain why.
